Pigeons

Well doesn't everyone just love pigeons? Even though they are practically a menace in our uptight society they have interesting lives. Closley related to the dove( amazing right, complete opposites almost) pigeons reproduce rapidly throughout the year. Everyone knows that the mama bird sits on the eggs after she lays them but did you know that the papa bird actually takes the morning shift in siting on them. Also the incubation time of the eggs is only about 17 to 19 days. Just a few things to think about the next time you see a pigeon!
